Keramické náležky: Co to je, když je potřeba a co od nich očekávat

When you need a keramické náležky, pevné, estetické zubní náhrady, které přesně kopírují přirozený vzhled zubu. Also known as celokeramické korunky, they are used when a tooth is too damaged for a filling but doesn't need a full implant. Unlike metal crowns, they blend in naturally and don't show dark lines at the gumline. This is why more people in the Czech Republic are choosing them over older options — they look real, feel comfortable, and last for years without embarrassing metal showing through.

They’re not just for front teeth. Many patients get keramické náležky, náhrady, které chrání poškozené nebo po ošetření kořenové kanálky zuby on molars too, especially when the tooth has cracked or lost a lot of structure. They’re stronger than composite fillings and more durable than older porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns. You don’t need surgery for them — just a good impression, a bit of tooth reduction, and a couple of weeks while the lab makes your custom crown. They’re the middle ground between a filling and an implant: less invasive than surgery, but way more permanent than a regular filling.

What makes them different from zubní korunky, obecný pojem pro jakoukoli náhradu, která obaluje zub? Not all crowns are ceramic. Some still use metal under the surface, which can show as a gray line over time. Keramické náležky are made entirely of ceramic — no metal. That’s why they’re the top choice for people who care about appearance, especially if they smile often or work in customer-facing jobs. They also don’t react with saliva or cause allergic reactions like some metal alloys can.

They’re not magic, though. If your gums are unhealthy or you grind your teeth hard at night, a ceramic crown might chip. That’s why your dentist checks your bite, your gum health, and your habits before recommending one. Good oral hygiene is still key — brushing, flossing, and regular cleanings keep the crown and the tooth underneath healthy. If you skip this, even the best ceramic crown can fail from decay under it.

You’ll also see these mentioned alongside zubní náhrady, obecný termín pro jakoukoli náhradu ztraceného zubu nebo jeho části like bridges or onlays. But keramické náležky are different — they cover one tooth completely, while onlays only fix part of it, and bridges connect multiple teeth. If you have one bad tooth and the rest are fine, a ceramic crown is usually the best answer. It preserves your natural tooth structure and doesn’t require grinding down healthy neighbors.

And yes, they cost more than metal crowns — but not as much as implants. Most people find the price worth it because they look natural, feel comfortable, and don’t need replacing every few years. If you’ve been avoiding fixing a damaged tooth because you didn’t want a metal crown, keramické náležky might be the solution you’ve been waiting for.
